Any Latin scholars about? 26 Mar 2009 I need about a page of Latin translated. It’s late – 18th century, so no classicisms. I will be Very Grateful (and that’s about all I’ll do, I’m sorry. They don’t pay much on a postdoc’s salary). History

History Bastardising history in the service of dogma 11 Jun 2008 History is one of those things that the venal mine to serve their special interests, with no concern for truth or accuracy. But it takes real stupid to say this: Contrary to popular belief, as historian David Barton points out, the theory of evolution was around long before Charles Darwin…. Read More
I’m a mere student, and not very good at that, but if no-one else offers, I can do it. goblinpaladin at the gmails. When do you need it by?
Just a suggestion, why not try usenet group alt.language.latin They seem to be pretty helpful there. but prepare for a lengthy discussion about some obscure details 😉

How about posting it? I did Latin in high school, and I’m sure if you post it, the combined intellect of Scienceblogs could give you an approximation.
just googling ‘translate into latin’ brought up this free software: http://www.translation-guide.com/free_online_translators.php?from=English&to=Latin not sure how good it is, but I imagine that it’s pretty easy to tell if it sucks (because if it does, it’ll give you gobledeegook). if nothing else, you’ll get a rough translation + it should be easier for your volunteer to fix it than to start from scratch

Teaching myself but dyslexic so I only use for personal consumption. I had difficulty with some obscure but key correspondance sent to John Ray, did an exhaustive search for a translation came up with zip as I suspect I would. One month later came across what I needed by sheer chance tucked away in an old oxford history of science series of volumes on late 17th century thinkers. None of the few refrences on the subject refered to a translation. A rather happy bunny.You never know whats round the corner.
